Study finds no link between acrylonitrile and cancer, Johor folk told

Attendees of yesterday's town hall in Pasir Gudang, where the Johor menteri besar and other officials addressed the district's pollution problem. Pasir Gudang's Sg Kim Kim saw two pollution incidents within just three months this year. – The Malaysian Insight pic by Kamal Ariffin, August 5, 2019.

A STUDY conducted by the International Agency for Research on Cancer from the 1970s to the present day has not found evidence linking acrylonitrile to the disease. This puts to rest concerns that the gas detected in Pasir Gudang recently poses a carcinogenic risk to humans. Effective July 2018, access to full reports will only be available with a subscription.
